    Playful Planning: Turning Goals into Joyful Rituals with Danielle McGeough

    Have you ever hit a big milestone and thought, “Why do I still feel so empty?” In this episode of Deeply Rested, I’m joined by Danielle McGeough, PhD—award-winning professor, self-leadership coach, and creator of the Rise Ritual Method—for a heartfelt conversation about what happens when you follow the “right” path… and still feel totally disappointed by life. Danielle shares her story of reaching tenure as a professor—something she’d worked toward for years—only to find herself deeply unfulfilled. That moment became the catalyst for a completely different way of living and working, one centered on creativity, play, and intentional rituals rather than rigid habits and hustle culture. We explore how small, meaningful practices can help you feel grounded and connected in your daily life—and how designing your own rituals can be a powerful antidote to anxiety and burnout. What You’ll Hear in This Episode: ✨ Danielle’s unexpected emptiness after achieving tenure (03:45) ✨ How to overcome anxiety by designing playful rituals (10:20) ✨ The rise of playful planning: how creativity changes productivity (21:00) ✨ From habit to ritual: adding intention to your routines (30:40) ✨ Practical tips for creating rituals that ground and inspire (40:15) This episode is for anyone tired of chasing goals that don’t feel good—and ready to infuse their life and business with more meaning, magic, and ease.

    Love, Joy, and Liberation: A Shame-Free Approach to Decolonization with Silvana Espinoza Lau

    You’ve heard terms like decolonization and anti-oppression, but how do they apply to your business? Can you honestly say you’ve done the work to ensure your business is doing no harm? If you’re unsure where to start—or feel worried about getting it “wrong”—you’re not alone. Decolonization work isn’t about shame or perfection. It’s about love, liberation, and taking intentional steps toward building a more inclusive and just business. That’s why I invited Silvana Espinoza Lau, a liberation and decolonization consultant, to join me on Deeply Rested! Silvana helps coaches, therapists, and other service-based providers decolonize and liberate their businesses to make their services more welcoming and affirming for clients who hold marginalized identities. In this episode, Silvana shares:  ✔️ Her expansive and compassion-focused definition of decolonization ✔️ 3 resources you can use to begin decolonizing your business ASAP ✔️ Non-exploitative, consent-based strategies for attracting more diverse clients ✔️ How to privilege love, joy, and liberation in your decolonization work If you’re ready to move beyond theory and start making real, tangible changes in your business—without fear or shame—I hope you’ll tune in. Connect with Silvana Silvana has put together a un-checklist on the 9 Areas of Your Practice That You Can Start Decolonizing.
